As to whether it is easy to transition. It would depend on where you want to go to next. When I was working in New York a few back, in good years, I've seen candidates moving into investing banking, PE and etc. But that is obviously the exception not the norm, a lot of opportunities are driven by market conditions. At the moment, it is quite slow moving for the other industries (finance etc.)

Hi Daniel,

It is interesting to hear from a headhunters perspective. What about non-finance areas like Shipping, IP etc. ?
